Hello there I got insertive oral sex from a women who is unknown hep c status when she was giving me felatio her braces cut my penis not enough to draw blood but to break the skin open. Is there a chance I could have contracted hep c from this exposure if she had dried blood on her braces from flossing or brushing teeth? Which makes me worry more four days after I got diagnosed with geographic tongue for the first time in my life at age 31 have never had anything like that on my tongue before your input is greatly appreciated thanks you!

If she had hep C, the risk would be incredibly low - way too low to be concerned. Also, geographic tongue is incredibly common and benign. Possible association between alcohol use or spicy foods, but we really don't know what causes it.

Yes, although 26 weeks is 100% conclusive
